In other words not about getting .30 BAC, where one might experience that, I'll admit I've gotten there maybe twice in my life decades ago

This apparently isn't too rare a phenomenon as one ages just another joy of getting old.
It only affects me when watching TV, it's not the TV set , picture is perfectly clear. I'll be watching and after 5-10 seconds looking at an actor, they suddenly have 4 eyes and sometimes 2 mouths. Any text on screen soon gets doubled.

I've read a lot about online to educate myself about this condition. It's some sort of problem with eye to brain transmission of visual input not syncing up properly, lots of possible causes, including stroke, I highly doubt I had a stroke, there are a lot of other possibilities. This has only been going on for like 2 weeks, I wanted to give it a bit of time to resolve itself.

The weird thing is it only happens when viewing a TV screen. I'm ready to consult a doctor about it now but unsure which type to see. I think it requires a specialist familiar with this problem. I just had an eye exam by an optometrist in December , but I don't think this is something for him, I'm thinking more like opthalmologist, hopefully not requiring a referral from my PCP .It also needs to be a practioner that accepts my insurance.

I can call a secretary at whatever doctor's office and make an appointment but I want to figure out the right type of doctor, that's my goal for today figure out who to see

I know this isn't a medical forum, even though called RX. I'm willing to hear some thoughts on it.I will decide by Friday who to call about this weird condition, maybe God's way of telling me not to watch TV ?

Underneath more than a dozen flat-screen TVs, there are 38 red, white and blue betting kiosks lining the walls of the sportsbook at Riverwalk Casino in Vicksburg, Mississippi. On March 8, what may be the greatest parlay wager ever to hit at a U.S. sportsbook was placed on one of them -- a $25, 20-leg bet that paid $104,412.44.

BetAmerica, the sportsbook operator for Riverwalk, said the parlay resulted in its largest payout since the book opened in August. Through the sportsbook, the bettor asked not to be identified.

The parlay featured point spreads, money lines and over/unders on a mix of Friday night NBA and college basketball games. The bettor backed 14 favorites, three underdogs and three overs. They all came through, but there were some close calls.

Their biggest sweat may have come in the first game listed on their ticket: Washington Wizards at Charlotte Hornets. The bettor took the favored Hornets to win straight-up at -200 odds. Washington guard Bradley Beal missed a potential go-ahead, contested layup with 3.6 seconds to play, and the Hornets held on for a 112-111 victory.

The ticket stayed alive when the Dallas Mavericks outscored the Orlando Magic 33-19 in the fourth quarter to cover a 6.5-point spread in a 111-106 loss and was completed with the Los Angeles Clippers' 118-110 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder in the final NBA game of the night.

BetAmerica vice president Alan Stremel said 20-leg parlays have been placed, but this was the first one to hit.

"We know players are excited about it, and the [Mississippi] market has been interested in parlays," Stremel told ESPN. "People like the potential payouts when putting it all together."

Traditionally, 20-leg parlays have not been a regular offering at Nevada sportsbooks, and multiple veteran Las Vegas bookmakers and bettors struggled to recall any parlay with that many selections ever cashing.

"I've heard of 15 [legs], but not 20, not with us," Bill Sattler, director of specialty game for Caesars Entertainment and a 30-plus-year Vegas veteran, said. "Welcome to the business."

It was costly start to the month for the Riverwalk, one of the new legal sportsbooks to open in Mississippi over the last year. In January, the five casinos with sportsbooks located in Mississippi's "central region," which includes Riverwalk, combined to win a net $457,000. The Riverwalk Casino lost nearly a quarter of that just as its first March Madness was tipping off.

Will more sports betting lead to more attempts to fix games? It could, warns a Division I athletic director. Marshall University AD Mike Hamrick worries that with an increasing number of states with legalized sports betting, including West Virginia where Marshall is located, the odds of gamblers trying to corrupt unpaid college athletes will increase as well. Jon Wertheim reports on the state of legal sports gambling in America on the next edition of 60 Minutes, Sunday March 24 at 7:00 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.

Betting on sports is as old as sport itself, but the new climate created by legal sports books worries Hamrick and others. "There's people that will do what they have to do to make a buck at the expense of an 18 or 19-year-old kid," says Hamrick. And with more than half of the 50 states predicted to have some kind of legal sports betting by next year, Hamrick is nervous.

West Virginia was one of the first to institute sports betting after the Supreme Court decided legalized sports betting was up to the individual states. "It's right in front of my face, Jon," he tells Wertheim. "It's legal. And most athletic directors I've spoken with feel the same way… And as more states legalize sports gambling, it'll affect more and more athletic directors."

Hamrick thinks that with legalized gambling offering so many different ways to wager on a game, including more and more bets placed during games, it may be easier to convince an unpaid athlete to influence a game. "It's very tempting. It's very tempting," he says. "They can be compromised. And-- our job is to make sure they're not compromised," says Hamrick, who says educating them to potential schemes is crucial.

You also have to be vigilant, he says, "You see a key player on your team driving a brand new car, you got to find out where that car came from."

Most professional sports leagues have lined up behind legalizing betting, believing it creates more engagement and more fans because bettors are very likely to watch the contests they wager on. Many also argue, including NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, that legal gambling provides a record of all the bets made, revealing patterns and shining light on a previously shadowy and illegal business. Silver believes it would actually thwart corrupt gamblers who may fear they're more likely to get caught. "I think it decreases risk dramatically," Silver says, "Because we have access to the betting information. I think when you have an underground business operating in the shadows, you have no idea what people are betting on your own events."

Still, Hamrick remains skeptical. "It's gambling. It can be handled to a certain extent. But nobody can sit here and tell you-- that they can deal with this and be 100 percent clean... they can't."

I have the Formula written down, but it's not with me at the moment. Here is what I remember of the formula...I'll post the exact conditions when I get home.

The team must be a Division 1 Team.
The team must have won each gane by a season average of 7 points or more.
The team must have scored at least 74%PPG average all season.
The team must have a defense that allowed no more than 74%PPG
The teams must be a 1,2, or a 3 seed.
The Coach must have been to the final 8 a t least once in his career and not necessarily with the same school
There are about 4-5 more criteria for the formula which I will post when I get a chance.
In the last 18 years this formula has produced the winner 17 times and the only time it didn't is 5 years ago when North Carolina won as an upset all the way to the Championship.
The formula usually has anywhere from 6-7 teams each year that qualify with only 5 this season.
Last year the formula produced 2 of the teams in the final game for the Championship.
This year the 5 Teams are....

The NCAA tournament has an abundance of betting opportunities available. Will Duke or the field win it all? What underdog should you put your money on in the first round? What is your favorite value bet to win a region?

We asked three of our gambling experts -- Doug Kezirian, Preston Johnson and Jordan Schultz -- where they are putting their money.You have to pick Duke or the field? Who are you going with?

Kezirian: I do feel the Blue Devils are the team to beat (and will probably win it all), but I lean to the field at the current odds. If Duke were 3-1 or 4-1, I'd probably take it, but there isn't value on it at this price. The issues for me are the Blue Devils' poor 3-point shooting and how foul trouble could jeopardize a thin roster. Plus, the East Region is actually quite difficult, even though Duke is the top overall seed. Given the odds, I would lean the field.

Johnson: I only project Duke to win it all 19.4 percent of the time, or +415. It's around +200 at most books right now. So at around -275, or whatever the field price is at a certain book, that's where the value lies.

Schultz: The field! No doubt about it. I like the Zags, but there are maybe 10 others who can win this whole thing. Remember, too, Duke has Michigan State in its bracket as an underseeded 2, and I agree with Doug about its 3-point shooting woes. While the Blue Devils have the most talent in the field -- most notably phenom Zion Williamson -- they remain a very young, very inexperienced roster that is vulnerable in a one-game elimination format.What is your favorite value bet to come out of a region?

Kezirian: Louisville at 18-1 to win the East Region intrigues me. The Cardinals were overshadowed by the nation's elite in the ACC but still held their own in several games. They had Virginia and Duke on the ropes before blowing those leads. Louisville is certainly capable of beating Michigan State and shaking up the region.

Johnson: I have Virginia coming out of the [South] region 50.5 percent of the time (true line of -102), so I'm showing a 6.1 percent edge on the Cavaliers (currently around +125). They have become an unattractive contrarian 1-seed despite ranking top five in adjusted offensive and defensive efficiency. Yes, they lost to 16-seed UMBC last year, but that's why there is value here. They have elite talent. Don't let the slowest pace in the country fool you.

Schultz: I still think Gonzaga (+120) is being overlooked, despite a tremendous season and the best talent Mark Few has ever had in Spokane. The Zags were my preseason pick to win a national championship, in large part because of their offensive balance, including star Rui Hachimura (20.1 PPG on 60.9 percent shooting). Defense always travels in March, and the Bulldogs grind teams down with their man-to-man "D," ranking 16th nationally in adjusted defensive efficiency, per KenPom.What is your favorite first-round underdog to win outright?

Kezirian: Technically, it's Oregon. I just love how the Ducks are playing lately, winning and covering eight straight games. The Pac-12 is not loaded with great teams, but Dana Altman has this team peaking right now.

In terms of a decent-sized underdog, I would pick Ohio State. I don't particularly love this Buckeyes team, but Kaleb Wesson is a force. He's more than capable of being the best player on the court. Iowa State has demonstrated more than its fair share of inconsistency, including a recent stretch when it lost five of six games.

Johnson: My favorite first-round underdog to win outright is Baylor, even though the Bears are only a two-point 'dog. It seems like most are already counting the Bears out, but they overload zones and effectively use screening tactics that generate lobs for dunks, open 3s and driving lanes when defenders are out of position. This is a matchup nightmare for the Orange 2-3 zone that I don't think many recognize.

As far as a double-digit 'dog that can win, my pick would be 14-seed Georgia State over 3-seed Houston. Tactically, Houston gives up a high rate of 3-pointers to its opponents, and Georgia State ranks 17th in the country from deep (38.4 percent). Houston has also been one of the luckiest teams in the country in regard to opponents missing open 3s, while Georgia State has been fairly unlucky with its opponents making an unusual amount of open 3s. If regression decides to come crashing down with both squads Friday, I don't mind the high-variance approach here picking the Panthers to win outright.

Schultz: Let's go out west; way west. Washington has quietly dominated the Pac-12 all year, in large part because of its perimeter play. Sophomore shooting guard Jaylen Nowell (16.2 PPG on 43.8 percent 3s) -- the conference Player of the Year -- is a big-time scorer, and Matisse Thybulle is just the third player in the past 20 years to average at least two steals and two blocks per game. The others? Shane Battier and Nerlens Noel. Utah State is a sound team that runs good offense and has a bona fide No. 1 option in Sam Merrill (21.2 PPG on 46.5 percent field goals), but with their disruptive 2-3 matchup zone, the Huskies are primed to do some damage in March -- and the Aggies will be their first victim. The Pac-12 has been hammered for its poor play, which is why UW is catching some points. Take the Huskies straight up and thank me later.The sum of seed numbers to make the Final Four is O/U 11.5. Which way are you going?

Kezirian: I lean to the under, as this tournament feels very top-heavy. While I understand that upsets inevitably occur, I don't see a seventh straight year of at least a 7-seed advancing to the Final Four. I anticipate relative chalk, when all is said and done.

Johnson: I already went to MGM on Sunday night to bet this; I really think it's a bad line. There aren't too many legitimate contenders to win regions in my opinion that aren't a 1-seed or 2-seed, outside of maybe Wofford, Auburn and Virginia Tech. Even in the case Wofford as a 7-seed wins the Midwest Region (I project it happens 5.9 percent of the time), this prop bet still has room to cash under 11.5. It isn't very fun rooting for chalk, but considering I think UVa and Gonzaga are 1-seeds the market is undervaluing anyway entering the tournament, I don't mind at all.

Schultz: Under, way under. There are plenty of lower -- even double-digit -- seeds worth looking at to make deep runs, but the Final Four has no space this year for a Cinderella. I really like teams that can either shoot it or lock you down -- think Wofford, Kansas State and Buffalo -- but as a whole, the 1 and 2 lines are too strong to get us over the 11.5 mark.The double-digit seed you can make money on this tournament is ...?

Kezirian: Florida is very dangerous as a 10-seed. I like the Gators in their opener with Nevada, which is battling injuries, and I'm just not sold on Michigan. The Wolverines are very well coached, but the Gators have demonstrated flashes that would suggest they're up for this challenge. A path exists for Florida to make a run.

Johnson: The three double-digit seeds I have most likely making a run to the Sweet 16 are Saint Mary's, Florida and Iowa. So in theory they would be the teams that could make us the most money if they come through.

Schultz: If you're looking for a big first-round upset, consider Old Dominion and New Mexico State; both teams guard you and control tempo. And don't forget about Ja Morant and Murray State against Markus Howard and slumping Marquette.

But the double-digit seed with the best chance to string together two, maybe even three wins? Try bubble-busting Saint Mary's. The Gaels execute in the half-court and have a terrific guard in junior first-team All-WCC performer Jordan Ford (21.3 PPG on 42.3 percent from 3). Randy Bennett's teams always defend, don't turn the ball over and control tempo with their sluggish pace. Keep in mind, too, that Saint Mary's just held Gonzaga -- the nation's top-scoring team at 88.8 PPG -- to just 47 points on miserable 37.5 percent shooting and under 12 percent from deep.
